    Super easy to learn how to play Pokemon!!
    Got this for my son for Christmas and he loves it!! He's been collecting cards for about a year now so I figured it's time to teach us both how to battle. They make it so easy to learn with the hardboard battle mat, 3 premade decks, coin, hit counters, instruction manual and more. Most importantly you start with a Pikachu electric deck and the other player with the cinderace fire deck. Each card in these decks are numbered so you start by putting them in order. Then just follow your individual manual book for that certain deck and it just walkes you threw how to play, with the manual already knowing what's going to happen next! It's awesome and super easy to learn! Then once you get it down you can switch to using the blue, Eevee darkness deck that's a bit more complicated and then you just get better and better and it all becomes very easy and a blast to play! If your kiddo is wanting to learn how to battle in Pokemon then I say this is the best way to go, hands down!!

    This is an awesome purchase for someone starting out or casually playing or even trying to rejoin in on the fun. I haven’t played Pokémon since the first iteration of the card games. I really like this game and deck box. Great value as well. Only drawback is the cards are numbered for each pack they come in. :( but otherwise a great purchase.

    I wanted to get my wife, who loves Pokemon but hasn't really been a gamer, some Pokemon cards and wow - if you're coming in from the outside, the trading card game is pretty overwhelming. I wasn't even clear what all I would need for the two of us to play.

    This set is a really good introduction. The tutorial is exactly that, and the decks are pre-stacked to work with it, which is a really nice touch. The cards are numbered on the faces, so you could re-stack if you wanted to, and you can sort the decks back out into the three originals if you try mixing and matching.

    Moving beyond the tutorial, these particular decks depend pretty heavily on luck. I got into a bit of a rabbit hole and have learned that the larger community builds decks that have many more cards allowing searching and extra draws, which can improve the consistency of a deck's performance quite a lot. So, consider your audience - if your players aren't really going to be sophisticated about building or using a deck with a lot of tricky functions, great! If they are - well, this is still really inexpensive and a legitimately good introduction but I think middle-school-age children and older will outgrow it pretty fast.

    Pokémon Battle Academy is a brilliantly designed card game that serves as the perfect gateway for newcomers to the world of Pokémon trading card games. What stands out immediately is the attention to detail in making the game accessible. The pre-shuffled decks remove a significant barrier for beginners, allowing players to dive right into the game without the often intimidating task of deck building.

    Each deck showcases a variety of Pokémon and moves, offering a balanced and fair gameplay experience. The instructions are clear, concise, and easy to follow, which is crucial for those who are new to the game or even card games in general. The game does an excellent job of teaching the basic rules and strategies of Pokémon battles, making the learning process both fun and engaging.

    For seasoned players, the game offers a nostalgic trip and a new way to introduce their favorite card game to friends and family. The quality of the cards and packaging is commendable, ensuring durability and a lasting appeal.

    The balance between simplicity for beginners and enough depth to keep games interesting is well-maintained. Pokémon Battle Academy is not just a game but a fantastic educational tool that brings people together, fostering both learning and fun. It's a must-have for anyone looking to step into the Pokémon TCG world or seeking a fun, family-friendly card game.

    Picked this up for learning how to play the game with my kids. Comes with 3 battle decks and step by step play instructions to get started. It doesn’t cover advanced rules but those aren’t needed with these decks. This is well worth the price just for the 3 decks, but the board and coins make it much more enjoyable to have a battle. Wish I would have bought this sooner.

    Bought for my son's 9th Birthday. He's been mad about Pokémon for a couple of years now and has hundreds of cards. We had both tried to learn how to play Pokémon through videos for a while. This little kit has everything you need and 2 separate guides one for each player. He was able to follow the instructions easily, must say I was able to follow them to (52yo). Straight away we were both playing Pokémon. Probably one of the best purchases I have made considering the frustration of trying to learn it for hours by other methods.
